Do you think those extra seal swellers can cause issues down the line?
I am not the seal designer so nothing is certain. But assuming it did swell the seal more than was needed to keep the oil in, then yes that would wear the mating surface of the seal out faster. Again, I don't know - but if you don't need the extra esters, why tempt fate.
Now I am sure someone here will tell us they have been using High Mileage oil for however many years without issue. But anecdotal or not - I don't need it so I don't need it.
Btw, I was at a local Walmart today and the most expensive oil there was Valvoline Restore and Protect (if we exclude Royal Purple and such) $30 for 5qt. All other oils were less expensive and the Castrol Edge (incl. the EP) was discounted at $25. ST was a bit below $20 and Quaker State was a bit over.
So, if you want to save some money Quaker State will be the best option of those three, but look for promo prices too because at Walmart Castrol and Mobil 1 may be discounted often.

Any will do. But this is a big step up:
Quaker State Euro 5w40. $23 at Walmart.

I agree. I really think you can't beat that deal. $23 with no rebate or sale needed. It's thought to be the same as Pennzoil Platinum Euro, too.
Update
Went to Walmart Pick up 6 jug of Quaker State Synthetic ( I think this will be my cheap oil choice and second is super tech 20k . Enough for oil change for 5 vehicles of my family, and I was thinking going to autozone for STP oil filter , but then I was being lazy so I grap 5 Fram EG ( I sure miss this grip on oil filter ) tomorrow I will tackle 5 oil change all at once, I’m sure it will be just fine for 6 month OCI.
For the dude above want send $5. I did all 5 family vehicles for FREE, just try to save much as I can.
For my Lexus and Cobra always Mobil 1
. I want best stuff.

I have never had a High Mileage oil stop a leak.
Tried valvoline, mobil 1,supertech QS no luck they still leak.
I run it in 3 vehicles just don't want to go back now thinking it might leak more.
If you still have the receipt you can submit it to Quaker State for the $10 rebate. I think up to 2 claims are allowed, but not sure if they have to be separate or can be bundled together. Either way that is $10 or $20 you’ll get back. Only takes a few minutes to do.

Yes I will, some one mention above, thank you
Good stuff on sale for $20
Any idea for this promotion if you can submit two separate receipts?
I bought one 5qt already, if I can qualify for the rebate I'll buy another for net ~$10
I don’t know. Check here. https://rewards.quakerstate.com/promotions
Ah I have seen that page and it doesn't really specifically state one way or the other, I was hoping anyone had an experience. I'll probably try it since it doesn't say you can't.
Check the rebate forum for a thread on this deal and ask there. I'm sure someone has experience. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/forums/product-rebates-sales-and-promotions.33/

Do you prefer a high mileage oil, extended drain oil, or don't care?
